Practical Oral Surgery for the General Dentist
by Dr. Jay B. Reznick
This series will cover the basics of oral surgery for the general practitioner. The typical dentist’s training in oral surgery is usually quite rudimentary, but in private practice, referral to a specialist may not be an option in every case. Yet, should a problem arise, general practitioners are held to the same standard of care as the specialist.

The 10 courses included in this series aim to increase the knowledge level and comfort zone of the general dentist when performing surgical procedures.

Topics covered include evaluation of the patient’s medical history, management of the patient on anticoagulants, antibiotic prophylaxis, and informed consent, presurgical planning, local anesthesia, design and use of surgical flaps, handpieces and hand instruments, classification of third molar impactions, surgical techniques for impacted teeth, and management of the surgical site, biopsy indications and techniques, and management of complications. Many of the surgical techniques will be illustrated using video of the procedures discussed.
